Renault and Software République unveiled the Vision4rescue, a demonstration vehicle with a high-tech ecosystem that allows emergency services to operate more efficiently in critical situations.
Based on the new Renault 4 E-TECH, the Vision4rescue is a fully functional vehicle developed specifically to meet the needs of modern fire services.
The Vision4rescue has a robust and elevated body. Just like the Renault 4 Savane 4×4 Concept show car, the ground clearance has been increased by 15 mm. Additionally, it is equipped with a second electric motor on the rear axle for permanent all-wheel drive, allowing it to undertake missions on any type of terrain.
The Renault Vision4rescue is also a vehicle with a unique appearance, adopting graphic codes inspired by the world of emergency services, with sharp contrasts between the matte and glossy materials used on the vehicle. The body in “Combustion Red” was inspired by the colors of fire, highlighted by fluorescent yellow-green lines that run diagonally.
The front section is marked by the luminous signature that highlights the robust style of the vehicle, with its round LED headlights, rectangular radiator grille, and illuminated frame. At the front and rear, the imposing bumpers feature contrasting inserts in yellow and red.
Note also the additional lights that reveal that this emergency vehicle is ready for all types of operations. The conventional bumpers at the front and rear have been replaced by 3D-printed parts with shock absorption properties and a “PinPon” pattern, a reference to the sound produced by emergency vehicle sirens in France.
The integrated roof bars support a large aerodynamic capsule. This structure is designed to house an observation drone, along with a series of equipment developed by Software République to restore a communication network after an accident. The capsule also features a “Combustion Red” paint job, with a blue LED strip installed precisely at the base.
Just like the exterior, the interior has also been carefully thought out and designed in close collaboration with firefighters, and thus the trunk receives a true mobile and connected command center,
In this way, the upper part, the rear shelf is replaced by a sliding table and two screens connected to a computer, transforming the vehicle into a true office on wheels. This allows emergency services to control the observation drone and maintain communications with other security forces.
The lower part of the trunk has two storage boxes designed to hold the necessary emergency equipment for firefighters, including helmets and bags, as well as electronic equipment (tablets, walkie-talkies, etc.), which are always charged and ready for action.
